Now, there's like a new trend. Every
holiday, if you've noticed, every
holiday we've had in the last two years,
there's Mashiach predictions.
Mashiach is going to come before Shàuot.
Mashiach is coming before Pes or maybe
right after Pes. Mashiach is coming
unlike maybe every every holiday there's
the Mashiach, you know, prophets. the
Messiah prophets in all languages in
Hebrew and English and Spanish. I don't
know, maybe Portuguese, too. Who knows?
They're coming in all shapes and sizes.
Everybody's a Everybody's a is a prophet
today. Even though the Rambam, right?
You're not allowed you're not allowed to
predict the time of Msiah. In fact, when
you do it, you get cursed from Shem.
But everybody's sharing these stupid
videos of famous rabbis or not famous
rabbis that are looking to become famous
predicting the Mashiah is going to come
uh before the holiday.
Are you Navi? Are you alah? That's why
you have to respond to the are you alah?
Because the only one that can say mash
is coming is yahawa. If you're not ali,
you cannot predict when Mashiah is going
to come. First of all, it's not allowed.
Second of all, you don't know. Can he
come? Sure. Why do you need to make a
video about him coming on a specific
date? No. This is the last Msiah. This
is the last Shah. Are you a prophet?
Are you a prophet? Is your name Yahu and
last name?
Did a bahu speak to you since the time
of pas?
Did a kadu make miracles for you other
than make these branches come out of
your face? Did he make anything else
happen?
Are you predicting Mashiach? Every
holiday, every holiday is a new Mashiach
talks. Enough.
Don't anyone that predicts the time of
Msiah, a specific date, stop watching
them. Why? They may have been good until
that day.
They may have been good until they say
there's possibilities. Yeah, there's
always possibilities. There's always
possibilities. I say it also. Possible
he could come tomorrow. Possibly come in
a week. Poss. It's always tell it's
possible. It's one of our one of the
foundations of our faith is to believe
that he come at any given day. But to go
out of your way and say no, this is
going to be the last sh this is going to
be the last pes. It's going to be the
last days this after corona before
corona. Are you a prophet?
Stop acting like it. Why? It causes much
more confusion
than anything else. And what these
people do not understand is that when
you become mashiach obsessed
and you just watch lectures about Msiah
and you only talk about Msiah, you know
what happens? You become a crazy person.
while remaining ignorant about the
entire Torah. Why? Because you're so
enamored about this mashia topic, you
don't have time to learn. You don't have
time to learn of just simply how to do
dayto-day prayers.
You don't even know if your if your suka
is kosher. Five years you have the same
suka. It's not even kosher because the
the the walls are made out of fabric and
it's flying back and forth like a like a
bird.
It's not walls and so on and so forth.
No, but I think there's a leniency.
Maybe Mashiah is going to fix this.
Yeah, you're Mashiach. Maybe
you have to understand Msiah is very
much a important part of our religion
but it's not the it's not the foundation
of our beliefs. Meaning to the extent
where you are all day you have to learn
about Msiah. That's Christianity.
Christianity.
That's them. That's what they do. Their
whole religion is based on some guy that
died and they believe he's gonna come
back from the sewer or what the the what
sewer bathroom. Where they coming from?
Oh, some place that he's in bathing in
some stuff. That's that's Christianity.
And by the way, says it's good to make
fun of. So
anyway, so if you laugh, it's also good.
Uh anyway, so that's Christianity. Their
entire belief system is based on this
yoske. That's it.
That's it. And all idolatry is based on
some type of main, you know, person or
or personality of some kind. Don't turn
the holy Torah
into idolatry, into falsehood, into a
fanaticism about something that you
don't even understand yourself. People
think the mashiach is going to be some
maybe it's going to be like a kiru
speaker that is really nice. It's guys
enough
it's it's not it's not going to be ku
speaker. The mashia is going to be a dem
it's going to be a certain personality
that the world has never seen before
since the time of
the mashia is going to be kesh.
The Mashiach is going to be something
that you cannot even fathom.
All of the superhero movies that you've
wasted your life watching cannot cannot
come to the foot of the Mashiach. He has
to be a that knows the entire Torah. He
has to be somebody holy.
It's not going to be somebody you like
because maybe you press like on his
video.
People have no concept of this.
Just say no. Mashia is coming this way.
Maybe he's the Mashiach because he's
really old. Maybe he's Mashiach because
he's really brave. Maybe enough. Don't
turn the whole religion about Mashiach.
Yes, but it's kind of ironic. The whole
series about the era of Mashiach. How
come? Because that's the important part.
The era of Mashiach,
not the Mashiach itself. Why? We need to
make sure that we know enough about the
era of Msiah to prepare ourselves
to be able to survive
those days and have the merit to see
Msiah whenever he comes before Shah
after in one year in five years and
whenever the decides to send him. But
when people focus themselves so much
about Msiah they simply lose their mind.
They lose their mind and unfortunately
sometimes it happens to speakers and
radio personalities
and one foolishness leads to another.
They start predicting dates. They start
giving you all types of weirdulot and
this and it just becomes like horrible
because what ends up happening is that
all the skeptics out there or perhaps
even the followers they have a date in
their mind. Why? Because this rabbi said
that he's coming on this date. This is
going to be the last. Well, guess what?
They're one of those people it's going
to remember. You know, a lot of people
forget. That's why a lot of companies,
for example, says, you know, buy this in
uh, you know, 30 days or your money
back. It's not that they're so certain
about their product. It's that they're
certain you're going to forget that you
can get your money back in 30 days.
That's because you're probably not going
to open it for two weeks. By the time
you open it, it's going to take at least
3 weeks for you for you to break it.
So in reality what ends up happening is
a lot of these mashiah predictors they
predict no mashia is going to come
before shot mashia is going to come
before mashia is going to come before
such and such date and in essence
they're also relying on people's
forgetfulness that shot came and went
came and went came and went the whole
year came and went and he's still
predicting why because they forgot he
already was wrong 500 other times they
forgot
And this happens to no end. I even know
a guy, nice guy, but made a very, very
bad mistake just a few months ago. He
decided that according to his
calculation, Mashiach was coming in 4
days.
He even went out of his way to make
videos about this, a countdown. Mashiach
is coming on Thursday, such and such
date in 4 days or whatever. I saw this
and he sent it to me. I said, "Are you
out of your mind? I mean, do you realize
how many sins you're making? Oh, I don't
understand why you rejecting this. Why
you're not supportive?"
Supportive. I wish you were right, but
it's not allowed anyway. Even if you
were right, it's not allowed.
Even if you were right, it's not
allowed.
But no, they want Mashiach to come. Why?
Because they have a wrong understanding
of what Msiah is. They have a wrong
understanding of the era of Messiah
and they're simply assuming that they're
much more righteous than they are.
They're simply assuming that Mashiach is
going to come because you want him to
come
or at least you think you want him to
come.
And the reality is if everybody simply
read the sephil by
read the discuss it read the different
sages that discuss the times of Msiah
their mindset would change completely
because you would know that it's not the
Msiah that we should worry so much about
but rather the era of Msiah.
So over the last few months has been
telling us that during the era of Msiah,
these evil shepherds that are sometimes
rabbis, sometimes politicians, sometimes
teachers, sometimes other types of
personality that's in leadership
position.
These are the people that are the
primary source of impurity in the world.
And worse yet, they are the primary
reason why is not done chuva.
